A Mystery Spelled Out In A History |Catchy Titles=Bonus Points?|

So so so so so so so thankful for this day in class!
Getting a chance to watch, study, and discuss the history of music videos has opened my eyes to the industry. I was a firm believer of "Video Killed the Radio Star" was the first music video, there can not possibly be any video that existed before that.
Guess what CM...

W R O N G

During this class session, I (my narcissistic side is showing) along with other students of the class got the opportunity to see videos that existed in a time before MTV.
And if there was one thing I noticed most out of all the class, it was that many elements of today's music videos seem that they have taken all these previous elements, mixed them in a bowl, and have baked a cake consisting of  genius camera angles, plot, and costumes.

Gotta love analogies, amiright?
